For a fleeting instant, Harry thought he saw a gleam of something like 
triumph in Dumbledore's eyes."

Voldemort. He shed her blood, but it lives on in you and her sister. Her

Because LV now has Harry's blood in himself -- the same blood that 
provides Harry's refuge -- then does it stand to reason that LV cannot 
harm Harry himself because anytime Harry is in LV's presence he is 
protected by the blood that now runs in LV's veins?
